is an excellent two-way player for Abington. As a linebacker, he is a sideline-to-sideline player. He is outstanding at reading his keys and attacking the offense all over the field. He is especially good at making tackles in or near the line of scrimmage. Then, as a running back, he is outstanding. He has quickness and burst that make him good. He also shows a physical running style that makes him difficult to tackle. Then he also has elite speed and can score once he gets into the open field. On both sides of the ball, Taylor is an outstanding prospect.

embodied pure athleticism this past weekend at the PRZ PA Combine. With a build more akin to a rangy safety, he brings a rare combination of speed and explosiveness to the position. Taylor could have easily competed alongside the defensive backs in the early session and thrived. As the fastest player in the linebacker group, he possesses exceptional twitch and the ability to close space in a hurry, flying upfield to disrupt plays before they can develop.
Beyond his straight-line speed, Taylor’s reactive time makes him a natural in coverage. He demonstrated an impressive ability to mirror running backs through their routes, staying low through sharp changes of direction. This blend of quickness and field awareness solidified Kai as a game-changer on defense.
